Liv Nelson Launches Indiegogo Campaign to Create Perspectives

Perspectives is a short USC Graduate Thesis film: Set at a college party, Perspectives tells the story of an alleged sexual assault seen through the different points of view of four main characters: the victim, the perpetrator, the victim’s friend, and a frat guy. Each version supports and contradicts each other in different ways, leaving the police to piece together what really happened.

A thesis film about an extremely important social issue, Perspectives is intended to create a discussion around the topic of sexual assault and pose the question, “Why does the justice system, more often than not, fail the victim?”

By weaving social issues into the narratives of films, writer/director Liv Nelson has found this to be a successful way to reach people. “Films have the ability to move people in ways they otherwise wouldn’t be moved. A single film can influence an individual’s opinion and teach an entire nation. The power of film is undeniable.”
